Architecturally & historically exciting. - Our guide Bishoo was friendly, knowledgeable & went out of his way to make the day a great experience. We were enthralled by the history of the Coptic & Islamic Faiths in Egypt. The driver John was courteous & attentive. This is a must do tour.

Thorough tour of Coptic Cairo - My tour of the Coptic churches in Cairo with Bishoo was all I had hoped for. I had a fairly short layover in Cairo and Bishoo picked me up and dropped me off at the airport (there is an extra charge for this) which made the tour possible for me. I was able to see many churches as well as the Coptic Museum, so for my purposes, it was exactly the tour I wanted. Bishoo was prompt, kind, and able to give me a lot of background. As a solo female traveler, it was nice to have him guiding me through the city, and I felt safe. Thank you, Bishoo — this was an opportunity I’ll long remember.

Thorough tour of Coptic Cairo - Bishoo was the ideal guide for my tour of Coptic sites in Cairo. Because the main Coptic area opened late due to Ramadan, we started with a different church not far away. I saw so many churches and shrines as well as the Coptic Museum. I feel that I got a good sense of the historical churches in Cairo as well as their living presence today. That was what I wanted and it was good to be able to focus on what I wanted to see. Bishoo was enthusiastic for the tour and thoughtful about things like how much we were walking. He was willing to start the tour early because my flight got to Cairo so early, and I appreciated that flexibility. I had a very short layover in Cairo, and felt that I was able to make the most of it, thanks to Bishoo!

Great tour to Old Cairo. - Khaled gave us a wonderful tour of Old Cairo. We visited a church, synagogue and mosque. Khaled has amazing knowledge and we learn a lot about Cairo and Egypt in general. Plus he’s a super nice guy. The tour company is very accommodating and picked us up at a location other than the hotels listed. The extra excursions to papyrus, oils, and cartouche also involve a sales pitch. Our trip to Cairo was definitely better because of our tour.

Thumbs up - We were very happy with our tour. Our guide, Ehab, was very kind, took time to explain things to us, and was interested in providing a very good customer-oriented service. All these things added to the positive impression. The only negative thing was the commercial aspect. While we understand the need to sell goods to tourists, it is important not to overdo this. On the whole, I would recommend Ehad as a guide, without reservation. Thank you again to him.
